There has been 2 suspicious garage fires over last few months in this neighbourhood, including the garage of the retired mounty officer, friends with my old Jehovah neighbour... People know who he is, and my neighbourhood is nice but close by there's the town ghetto we're lower income and welfare people live, appartments and runned down houses, coke and speed addicts who steal to get by. It's a tiny town but still has those issues. Retired mounty guy sits on his front porch and has a camera and Cb, he takes pictures of cars speeding and calls the cops on them, they built a speed bump in front of his house to slow down traffic... Special favors for special residents. He put an old couch on side of road for garbage and somebody set it on fire.. We have a few arsonists arround.

I think I will have to move soon. Before something bad happens. Cops are constantly driving arround and turning in my driveway for other idiots arround, if I didn't know everyone and have access to town gossip I would have assumed their on to me.

My father wants to sell his house and 80+ acres of land in the middle of nowhere for 400 000$.. I need at least 40 000 for cash down and find a bank that will finance my poor electrician ass.. Yeah right I can't go over 250 000 as of right now...

You might want to remove some of the particular information you have posted, small town and some of the details would be easy to put two and two together.

[igrowone]

quite a story, no fun with the text running all together, still worth reading
but growing skunky plants with a neighbor that's packed in close?
that was a questionable choice, the unexpected happens

Yeah this is 100% true, if it was a joke or me trying to be clever I wouldn't have spent over an hour sitting down holding my 4-1/2 inch screen smart phone to type in some bs story to get attention, take your smart phone and re type my first post to see how long it takes, and that's just copying not also taking the time to think of how your going to write it, and I smoked too so maybe even close to 2 hours.. Not worth the time to write fiction lol.
This is just the weird stuff that has happened and continues to happen arround here since I moved. I had a feeling you guy's would think that this is made up or exaggerated. Nope just the worst luck and continuous 50 presences. They park in neighbours driveway to watch one of the forest trails the local idiots use to cut across town or get away from police, this town has some really dumb criminals who would make even the trailer park boys seem like smart criminals, they think and act like it's ok to do stupid stuff all time and ride 4wheeler in public roads everywhere and cut across peoples lawns and steal from their own kids and grandma's... I can't tell this story in real life and I like being able to talk about it here, this is like grower therapy. Yeah I guess I have just picked a hot spot for criminals and police.. You would see my street you would never think that. There's one idiot that lives in the ghetto and he seems like he's attracting the majority of these shit flies. He's the one suspected of arson, his car just happened to be in the first garage that went up in flames and he doesn't even live there.. He's been reported on numerous occasion by the retired mountie and has received many traffic and speeding tickets because of him and was at the scene of the second garage fire and apparently he was the good Samaritan who called the firefighters that night. He's a life long welfare bum and is probably the biggest thief arround, some how he never gets caught and when he does rumour is he snitches to get out of it... That's the perfect definition of a rat.

sounds like the guy is a pro and a piece of shit.hes dangerous.personally id put the fear of god in him and tell him hes got to go.other than that you got to move

[BlackMarketMic]

Yeah I'm thinking about moving especially after the last garage fire and the fact that this area has a few idiots arround that are attracting the cops. Don't know about the new neighbour, so far he's coming over on weekends to fix up the house, almost all his buddies have Harley's and crotch rockets, not going to make myself crazy trying to figure out who he is like I did with the last neighbour. He's not really the type I'm worried about but I'll be extra careful and we're putting up a nice 8' fence between our properties, I was going to pay for myself but he offered to pay half.. I want to move to the country, it's the best place for guy's like us. Country houses are expensive especially if you have land with it so well see..

I guess the moral of this story is don't be too hasty when you buy your first house, try to learn as much as you can about it and the neighbours. Sometimes it's not possible and the only way to know is by moving there...

Oh and beware of the Jehovah's, although a few of them are ok, for the most part they are secluded and influenced by the elder members of the religion/cult and are very judgemental individuals because of that.

A lot of people set their garages on fire open blasting cans of butane through a pipe filled with bud to make BHO. There is an entire thread on articles about it in the concentrates forum.

Owning a home is awesome. The only problem is you can't pick your neighbors. Everyone on the block gets along for the most part, except for this one neighbor. She is on disability (there's nothing wrong with her, she goes kayaking, mows the grass, etc.) so she has lots of time on her hands. She sits on the front porch and watches the neighborhood. And she sticks her nose in everything. And she drinks. You get the picture.

I make it a point to be nice to everyone, but I don't pal around with any of them. I wave, say hi, and keep to myself. Never get tight with your neighbors. If shit goes south, you now have a liability. I'm not going to prison because some jackass got their nose out of joint because I didn't invite them over to swim in the pool or some stupid shit.

Country is great, but I have had good luck in the city as well. Surprising thing about all my neighbours has been they are always worried when they want to do something on their property and I tell them it's their property do as they like, one joked about growing 200 plants in their backyard and I told them go for it I don't give a shit, just check with their wife first and realized I was serious. All my neighbours know me and realize I don't give a damn what they do on their property but they have had shitty neighbours before that try to enforce the property line by a couple inches or don't want people to have chickens, build sheds etc, when you live and let live people really are taken aback and seem to leave you alone with whatever you're doing, but fences make great neighbours especially when they are using part of your property on the other side of it.
